Charlie's Angels: November 3, 2000

They're beautiful, they're brilliant, and they work for Charlie. In a smart, sexy update of the '70s TV show from celebrated music video director McG, CHARLIE'S ANGELS revolves around three female detectives- Natalie (Cameron Diaz, Golden Globe nominee for There's Something About Mary) the bookworm, Dylan (Never Been Kissed's Drew Barrymore) the tough girl, and Alex ("Ally McBeal"'s Lucy Liu) the class-act-as intelligent and multi-talented as they are ravishingly gorgeous and utterly disarming.
What can be done when Eric Knox, a soon-to-be billionaire, is kidnapped from his own office at Knox Technologies, and the company is in jeopardy of losing a billion dollars? Under the sure hand of their suave playboy boss, notorious for his clever ways of avoiding face-to-face meetings with his employees, the Angels use feminine charm, high-tech gadgets and hand-to-hand combat to save themselves, Charlie and thousands of innocent people.

 The People's Review The Charlie's Angels

Drew 
score = 90
I thought Charlies Angels was the bomb. Im usually not a action movie fan. But this is the one action movie I really actually liked. My favorite angel is Dylan that is played by my favorite actress Drew Barrymore. I thought she was alsome in it.Just the way she kicked butt in the film was cool. I hope they make a two if they get a chance.Well thats what I think of Charlies Angels the movie.

This film has to be the most fun I have had at the cinema for ages. All in all it does what it sets out to do perfectly. It may not be the most thought provoking film of the year, but it doesn't try to be.

All I have to say about this movie is that it was the absolute WORST movie I have ever seen. Bill Murray added a little life to it but there was nothing he could do to save this hopelessly bad movie. It upsets me that Cmeron Dias, who has played such great roles in Any Given Sunday and Theres Something about Mary would make a movie as this. I usually pick out the parts of the movie that i did like, but in this movie all they had was cheesey humour and a pointless plot.

This movie is really cool. I think it's the best movie I've seen this year. Lucy, Cameron, and Drew were terrific. Charlie's Angels proves that women can be independant and smart and still be hot girly girls. I definitely would give this movie two thumbs up!

Definitely a must see movie. My vote for the movie of the decade. All the angels look sexy & really kick butt. It is a very well directed movie--full marks for the action sequences---as good as any action film i have ever seen. The movie's gpt great responses. Maybe even I will see it some day!!!!

I thought the movie was excellent and i would see it again and again. I give it two thumbs up. My favorite chracter was Alex played by Lucy Liu.

Bonnie Hoover

I thought that the movie was excellent, a real kick-butt type of woman empowering experience, and that was for women of all ages like my young daughter in law in her early 20's to myself 48, it was action packed, and funny from the get-go. Way to go Drew, Cameron, and Lucy, you were winners all the way. But the hilarious sight of Cameron in her spiderman underoos still has me in stitches. Don't think I have that much confidence. The Angels were great! Bill Murray was great and funny as Bosley and it was good they had John Forsythe for Charlie's voice as there could be none other, don't you agree?

The funnest movie i've ever seen.  Makes women feel independant, sexy, and strong.  Drew Barrymore is fabulous and looks amazing.  All three main actors were very well placed in their roles.  By my count, this is the best movie in the theaters and a must see.  Many congradulations to Drew for her great job as a producer.  Way to go.

I give it a million , ive seen it 5 times already. Drew is the most beautiful , brilliant woman ever.I think its crap that these losers who thing they know it all about films keep rating it so low , and say its corney... Have they ever seen the tv series? obviiously not! Hair fliping, ass kicking ,hot woman getting the job done... thats what its all about! I think it is also great that the director was a film virgin and got this chance to make it in films. Drew is a wonderful producer and Ebert sux.Lucy and Cameron are beautiful also. GO SEE IT! TOM GREEN IS BEAUTIFUL!!
THE CHAD IS GREAT!

Great action movie. Without Cameron and Bill Murray the show would be incomplete. I think the plot was excellent. GIRLS KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!

This may not be for the serious movie-goer but for a night out with the girls this was really fun!!!!

score = 90
The movie was sexy, smartly done and paced very well.  The movie had excellent action sequences and it was clear the women did all they could possibly do (Stunts and action) considering they are not stunt actors.  The only thing I can be upset with is I personally believe that only movies with rating "R" should be allowed to have G*D D**N you know...because only adults should be subjected to such profanity.  Or at least the material should be rated adult material so if children do hear such a word and repeat the line it the movie the makers of  the movie can say :"Hey it was rated "R" how did little Johnny and Mary get in to see it?"  But other than the one Profanity uttered by Lucy Liu I have no problems with Charlies' Angels and I reccomend it to almost anyone.  It is great fun and a must see for action buffs or those who are fans of Matrix style action. I think it has more Matrix syle action than the Matrix?  Not sure.  But I am counting the days till the DVD comes out....hoping for a sequel like mad.

I liked this movie, I dont care what people say, this movie was made for teenagers, I think. Not for some old person to sit around and watch it and give bad reviews for it.   That just gives it a bad name and then people dont want to see it.  Thats why you should never listen to those guys.

Charlies Angels was exactly what I thought. FUN!!! It had no plot so I only gave it a 90 but who needs a plot to weigh you down when you can sit with an empty head and let the Angels breeze by you! Watch out for Sam Rockwell who steals every scene he's in!

I must admitt if my friends hadn't convinced me to go see Charlie's Angels I wouldn't have taken the time and wasted it on such a stupid movie i thought. Well I must say 2 thumbs up!!!!!  I was left speechless on how well the movie did.  All the girls did a perfect job in their parts.  Everyone I went with (all guys) were blown away too at the film as well.  I will definatly go see it again and I hope a sequal is coming out as well.  A job well done to everyone who had a part in making the movie.
           Thanks for your time.

comments = I just went and say the new Charlie's Angels. I loved it. It was a wonderful recreation on the original show. It is a excellent movie with women in dominate and powerful roles. The three stars portray a genius mixture of raw edge toughness and sex feminity. I applaude every one who made the movie happen.
